Change in inter-atomic communication character in the formation of solid and liquid solutions. Relationship of vibrational and configuration entropy and their physical interpretation

The purpose of this work is to show that during mixing, two hidden (latent) processes proceed simultaneously and compensate each other: the first initiates an increase in the average heat capacity, equal in magnitude to the entropy of mixing, which requires energy absorption to ensure a constant temperature, the second initiates simultaneous latent heat release by strengthening interatomic bonds. The passage of these two processes during mixing shows the identity of the vibrational and configurational (statistical) entropy.
